PREFACE.
The 84th Regiment was first raised by Eyre Coote in the
latter part of the year 1758, and was placed on the establish-
ment and numbered the 84th on the 25th of December in that
year * After five years' arduous service in India the Eegiment
was ordered to be disbanded, and the officers placed on Half
Pay by Warrants, dated War Office, December 9th and 30th,
I763.t
On the 13th June, 1775, the Eegiment was revived in
America by Lieutenant-Colonel Allan McClean, as the Royal
Highland Emigrants, being principally recruited from Scotch
settlers in Nova Scotia, and the Regiment was dressed and
equipped the same as the 42nd Highlanders. By letter, dated
Whitehall, April 1st, 1779, the Regiment was placed on the
establishment and numbered the 84th. J They rendered good
service during the war for upwards of eight years, being again
disbanded at the close of the war in 1783.
Ten years later the Regiment was again revived by Lieu-
tenant-Colonel Bernard, H.P. 86th Foot, who was authorized
by letter, dated War Office, November 2nd, 1793, to raise a
Regiment of Foot, without any allowance of levy money,
to be completed within three months. This was duly accom-
plished, and the newly-formed Regiment was inspected at York
on the 23rd February, 1794.§
On the 12th March a Second Battalion was authorized to be
raised on the same terms as the first, and it was completed and

inspected at Hull on the 17th October following ; but it was
reduced, and incorporated in the First Battalion at the end of
1795. A Second Battalion was again added by a letter, dated
War Office, May 6th, 1808 — the greater part of which was
raised in Preston and Lancashire — and served in the Peninsula
War from 1811 to 1815 ; but after the war it was reduced, and
the remainder joined the First Battalion at Dover in 1818.*
The present title of the new territorial Eegiment was first
conferred on the 84th Eegiment upwards of seventy years ago,
as the following letter will show : —
"War Office, 2l8t January^ 1809.
" Sir,
" I have the honour to acquaint you that His Majesty has been
pleased to order that the 84th Regiment of Foot under your command
shall in future assume and bear the name of * York and Lancaster * in
addition to its present numerical title.

On the reduction of the Second Battalion the following letter
was issued : —

" Sir,
" I have the honour to acquaint you that as the 2nd Battalion of
the 84th Regiment was employed in France and Spain, and bore a con-
spicuous part in the Battle of the Nive, and received permission to wear
on its colours and appointments the words * Peninsula ' and * Nive,' and
as that Battalion has been reduced, and the men transferred to the 1st
Battalion, His Royal Highness, in the name and on the behalf of His
Majesty, has been pleased to approve of the 84th Regiment being per-
mitted to bear on its colours and appointments, in addition to any other
badges or devices which may have heretofore been granted to the Regiment,
the words * Peninsula ' and * Nive,' in consequence of the distinguished
service of the late 2nd Battalion in France and Spain, and at the Battle of
the Nive on the 9th, lOth, and 11th December, 1813.

In consequence of Sir George Naylor, Garter King of Arms,
objecting to the Union Rose on a pair of New Colours, the
following authority was issued : —

" In reference to your letter of the 2nd ult. and enclosures, I
have now the Commander-in-Chief's command to signify to you that,
under the circumstances therein stated, His Majesty has been pleased to

While the 2nd Battalion was doing good service in the
Peninsula, the 1st Battalion was equally well employed in
India, for which services they received the following letter of
recognition : —
" Sir, »* Horse Guards, 20th December, 1826.
" I have the honour to acquaint you, by direction of the Com-
mander in Chief, that His Majesty has been pleased to approve of the 84th
Regiment bearing on its Colours and appointments, in addition to any other
Badges and Devices which may have heretofore been granted to the Regi-
ment, the word * India,* in commemoration of its services in that part of
the world from the year 1796 to 1819.
" I have, &c.,
" The Officer Commanding, " H. Torrens,
" 84^^- Regiment. " A djutant- General.^*
The Regiment was again in India when the Mutiny broke
out, and took part in all the most important engagements
during that most anxious and trying campaign, and by General
Order, No. 832, dated September, 1863, the word "Lucknow"
was authorised to be borne on the Colours and appointments of
the Regiment, in commemoration of their services in restoring
order in Her Majesty's Indian Dominions and for the defence
and relief of Lucknow. By General Order, No. 32, dated
February, 1883, they were authorised to bear the words "Egypt,
1882," and " Tel-el-Kebir," on their Colours and appointments
for their services in Egypt in 1882.
The above brief outline of the formation of the Regiment and
the distinctions they have won must sufl&ce here, a complete
history in detail being reserved for a future volume.

X PREFACE.
To compile a complete Roll of the Officers of a Eegiment is
no easy task, but one which involves long and tedious research
far out of all proportion to the results obtained ; it is perhaps
owing to this fact that so few works of this kind, even in an
incomplete form, have been published. Some idea of the mag-
nitude of the undertaking may be gathered from the number of
volumes which have to be consulted, and when it is remembered
that each of the officers has to be traced year by year, for the
whole of his service, through almost every volume. The London
Gazette from 1756 to 1884 consists of 373 volumes, and until
1785 has no index; the Annual Army Lists from 1756 to 1868,
when they were discontinued, comprise 113 volumes ; and the
Monthly Army List from 1814 to 1884, 852 volumes ; in all
upwards of 1,300 volumes. In the Annual Lists there is no
index previous to 1765, nor to Half Pay Officers until 1789.
No notice is taken of casualties before 1811, and it is not until
1880 that dates of deaths or resignations are given. Since the
present Quarterly Army List was first published in 1880, a great
improvement has taken place, and these volumes now leave
little to be desired, all names and dates being given in full.
Unfortunately there is a gap between 1868-1880 when no
Official Annual Lists were published.
In compiling this EoU no trouble has been spared to render
it complete and reliable in every particular, the date of birth,
death, and war services being given whenever it has been pos-
sible to ascertain these facts, an amount of detail which has
never before been attempted in any similar publication. The
services of every officer are also traced in any other Regiments
in which he may have served before joining or after leaving the
84th Regiment, from first to last. The various ways of spelling
the names of officers causes endless trouble, especially during
the first sixty or seventy years. Formerly officers were often
Gazetted and remained in the Army List for years without
christian names or even initials, thereby rendering the task of
identification almost impossible. In these cases recourse has
been had to the original Pay Lists and Muster RoUs in the
Public Record Office, but even then not always with success.
The careless manner in which appointments were formerly
PREFACE. XI
made may be gathered from the following announcement in
the London Gazette, dated War Office, January 10th, 1767 : —
" Whereas many mistakes and inconveniences have arisen from
the want of an authentic publication of the Commissions
granted to Officers in His Majesty's Army, notice is hereby
given, that the said Commissions shall, for the future be regu-
larly published in the London Gazette."
One striking fact is brought to light by this Eoll — which is
probably but a fair example of all others — viz., the great
number of changes which take place by officers exchanging to or
from other Eegiments, so that out of 914 Officers contained in
this Eoll only about 336 have served all their time in the
Battalion (not counting service in the Militia, Indian Stafi'
Corps, in the ranks, or on Half Pay), the remaining 578 having
served in from one to seven other Eegiments ! Of the twelve
full Colonels, only three had any previous service in the Bat-
talion on being appointed Colonel ; and only six officers have
served all their time in the Battalion and risen from Ensign to
Lieutenant-Colonel.
In my endeavour to render this Eoll not only complete, but
correct, I have to thank several of the officers, both past and
present, for their assistance, but especially Lieutenant-General
Thomas Lightfoot, C.B., and Major-General Frederick Hardy, for
correcting and pointing out the errors in the proof sheets, which
are almost inseparable from a work dealing with such a large
number of names and dates as the present volume contains. I
am also gi*eatly indebted to Major Arthur Herman Luck, and
to Captain Andrew Eichards N"ug^e, for much valuable assistance.
In conclusion, I would ask for indulgence for any mistakes which
have been overlooked, and only hope that these pages, although
they of necessity contain but an imperfect record of the various
services of many distinguished officers, may prove both useful
and interesting to all those who take a pride in the old
84th Eegiment.
G. A. E.
PONTEFRACT, June 18th, 1885.
THE HALLAMSHIRE REGIMENT.
As it may be interesting to record how the Eegiment
obtained its present title, the following details will perhaps not
be considered out of place.
Early in March, 1881, a Report was presented to Parliament
giving the proposed titles for the new Territorial Eegiments,
from which it appeared that the 65th and 84th Eegiments, were
to be linked together and styled '' The Hallamshire Eegiment." *
The following Circular letter was at once issued to the
officers of the Eegiments concerned, by an officer of the (now)
3rd Battalion, and although the time was short a large number
of replies were received, showing an overwhelming majority in
favour of retaining the old title of the 84th, or " York and Lan-
caster " Eegiment, not one vote being recorded for " The Hallam-
shire Regiments
MEMOEANDUM.
"THE HALLAMSHIRE REGIMENT."
" The Committee on Territorial Eegiments have suggested
the above title for one of the new Territorial Eegiments, to be
composed of the present —
" 65th (2nd Yorkshire, North Eiding) Eegiment,
" 84th (York and Lancaster) Eegiment,
" 3rd West York Light Infantry Militia,
Ditto ditto 2nd Battalion.
"Since the standing Army was first established in 1660, by
Charles IL, no reforms on so large a scale and of so important
a character have been attempted as the proposed organisation
9 —
♦ Parliamentary Paper, No. [C. 2793] dated War Office, 25th Feb., 1881.
THE HALLAMSHIRE REGIMENT. XIU
involves, and all officers must feel that, while there is yet time,
an effort should be made to obtain for our Eegiments some more
suitable designation than the one proposed.
"It is most desirable that some title should be adopted
which will retain the association with the county to which
they may justly claim to be entitled, on the following
grounds : —
" 1. The 65th and 84th are both Yorkshire Regiments, and
the 3rd West York Light Infantry is not only one of the oldest
in the kingdom, having been raised in 1759, but is also the
senior of all Regiments of Infantry Militia.
" 2. The 14th, on which the title of " The West Yorkshire
Regiment" has been conferred, is a Buckinghamshire Regiment,
and the 4th West York Militia, which forms the 3rd and 4th
Battalions, is one of the junior Militia Regiments in the United
Kingdom, having been raised in 1853. [The Militia Committee
(Colonel Stanley's) in 1877 proposed that the 65th, 84th, and
3rd West York should be styled the * Royal West York.']
" 3. The 25th King's Own Borderers, which it is proposed to
call the ' York Regiment,' is a Scotch Regiment, and has no
connection with Yorkshire; and the 5th West York Militia,
which is to form the 3rd and 4th Battalions, was raised at the
same period as the 4th West York.
" 4. Hallamshire is an ancient Saxon Manor, the name of
which is almost unknown out of Yorkshire ; it consists of a
district around Sheffield, of which borough it forms part. It
contains the townships of Upper and Nether Hallam, and at
the census in 1871 numbered about 34,000 inhabitants.
" It will thus be seen that few Regiments have a stronger
claim than ours to a county title, such as every other Regiment
has, with the exception of a few which represent well-known
cities, as London, Manchester, and Dublin.
"Some suitable title for our Regiment could easily be
found even without disturbing existing arrangements of other
Regiments, and which would at the same time identify the
Regiment with the county, which the word * Hallamshire '
entirely fails to do.
XIV THE HALLAMSHIRE REGIMENT.
" The title of ' Hallamshire ' lias for a long time been appro-
priated by the 2nd West York Eifle Volunteer Corps, which is
generally known as the ' Hallamshire Eifles/
" The following titles are suggested : —
" 1. The York and Lancaster Light Infantry.
" 2. The York and Lancaster Eegiment.
" 3. The York and Lancaster Eangers.
"4. The York Eangers.
" The first alternative comprises more or less the present
designation of all three Eegiments, viz. : 65th, 84th, and 3rd
West York Light Infantry. All the above three Eegiments are
equally interested in the future name of the Eegiment in which
they are to be more or less amalgamated.
" In the second title proposed, the prefix * Hallamshire ' is
simply omitted, and the old title of the 84th retained.
" With regard to the last of these titles it may be remarked
that this title has been borne before. The 'York Eangers*
were raised in 1803, were shortly after made the ' Eoyal York '
Eangers,* and were disbanded in 1819. There was also a
Eegiment of 'York Chasseurs' from 1814 to 1819. At the
present time there is no Eegiment bearing the title of 'Eangers,'
although at the beginning of this century it was a favourite
title, and borne by several corps ; but there is a Eegiment of
* Foresters,' and several ' Fusiliers,' ' Borderers,' and ' Light
Infantry,' &c.
" It is therefore hoped that all officers will join in the
endeavour to obtain a more suitable name for. their new
Eegiment.
" With this object in view, officers are requested to sign
the accompanying form, stating the title (or any other) which
they prefer, so that the necessary steps may be taken to lay the
subject before the Secretary of State -for War without delay.
No liability or responsibility is incurred by signing this paper,
which is issued for the sole purpose of obtaining the opinion of
the majority of the officers of the Eegiments concerned, and it
will be treated as strictly confidential."

Note. — ^The Regiment was disbanded in 1763, the Officers being placed on
H.P.; it was revived in 1775, but again disbanded in 1783, and finally revived
a second time in 1794. This fact will explain the apparent gaps between
those years. From 1775 to 1783 and from 1794-95 and 1808 to 1817 the 84th
Foot consisted of two Battalions, which will account for the larger number of
officers during those periods.

NOTES.
1. Purchase was abolished by Royal Warrant, dated 20th July, 1871, to take
effect from the 1st November, 1871.
2. The rank of Ensign was abolished and that of Sub-Lieutenant substituted
by Royal Warrant dated 30th October, 1871. (See also Army Circulars 1871,
Clause 207.)
3. " The following Memorandum appeared in the London Gazette^ December
1871 : — 29th, Lieutenants, whose Commissions bear date on or before the 31st
October, 1871, will, on being brought into a Regiment from Full or Half Pay, or
by Exchange with an Officer who was a Lieutenant prior to the 1st November,
1871, be placed next above the Senior Lieutenant of such Regiment who was
not a Lieutenant on the 31st October, 1871, and who may not have completed
three years* service.'*
This was subsequently cancelled by the foUotmig notice in the London
Gazette of July 16th, 1872.
The following Memorandum is substituted for that published in the London
Gazette of the 29th December, 1871 : — ** Lieutenants, whose Commissions bear
date on or before the 27th October, 1871, will, on being brought into a Regiment
from Full or Half Pay, or by Exchange with an Officer who was a Lieutenant
prior to the 28th October, 1871, be placed next above the Senior Lieutenant
of such Regiment who was not a Lieutenant on the 27th October, 1871, and
who may not have completed three years' service."
The London Gazette of July 16th, 1872, also contains the following Memo-
randum : — " The Commissions as Lieutenant of the undermentioned Officers
who were promoted to that rank on 1st November, 1871, under the Royal
Warrant of 30th October, 1871, to be antedated to 28th October 1871, such
FOKMEHLY THE EIGHTY-FOURTH REGIMENT. 35

which the motto " Primus in Indis^ was afterwards granted because
it was the first regiment of the line that served in India. In 1756
he served with the detachment of the 39th that formed part of
the force with which Clive retrieved the fortunes of the British in
Bengal. He also took part in most of the actions that preceded
the Battle of Plassy, and he was one of the small minority that
voted in favour of the advance that led to that battle. He returned
to England with the 39th, but he soon re-appeared on the scenes
of his early services.
In October, 1759, the 84th Regiment arrived in Madras, with
Coote as Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant. His name is associated
with a long list of operations, most of them successful — a list so
68 SECOND BATTALION YORK AND LANCASTER REGIMENT ;
long that only a few of the most important can be mentioned, viz. :
the Battle of Wandewash, on January 22nd, 1760 ; the Captures of
Arcot on February 9th, of Villenore on July 16th, and of Pondi-
cherry on January 16th, 1761.
In 1779 Coote went to Bengal as Commander-in-Chief, but the
next year his services were required at Madras where we had
suffered some reverses. A series of victories, almost as numerous
as those which marked his first command there, and far more
important, signalised his campaigns of 1781 and 1782. The most
notable of these latter were the Battles of Porto Novo, PoUilore,
Sholinghur, and Arnee.
In September, 1782, he returned to Bengal. He was once more
recalled to Madras in the beginning of the following year, but
age, long service in India, anxiety, and the effects of much previous
illness, at last overcame him, and he died on the 26th [or 28th] of
April, 1783, two days after he had landed.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
The Tiues. — " One of the great attractions of this work is a large number of
illastrations, inolnding plans of the Artillery fields, and the neighbourhood at
different times. No praise, indeed, can be too high for the pains which Giiptain
Baikes has taken to render interesting his very complete record of the Honourable
Artillery Company. ... It is well worth reading, and is a mine from which the
general historian will be able to extract much."
The Morning Post. — '< It mast be again said that this book is one of high
importance ; the history of the Honourable Artillery Company is to some extent
the history of the nation, and the author who so efficiently places it before us
deserves the thanks which belong to a national benefactor."
The Daily News. — " The diligence with which Captain Baikes has gathered
together materials from printed books and papers, public records, and manuscripts,
both in national and private collections, is apparent, not only in his extensive list
of authorities, but in the substantial fruits of his researches. He has written and
compiled a work of considerable historical interest, and one which is full of enter-
tainment, from its abundant tokens of old manners among the citizens of London."
The Standard. — " The Honourable Artillery Company is entitled to rank among
the most ancient institutions of London, and its records form an interesting part
of the history of the Metropolis for several hundred years past. . . . The Members
of the Company are to be congratulated on possessing such an exhaustive history
of their famous old corps as the one which Captain Baikes has now completed for
them."
The Daily Chronicle. — ''Immense labour must have been taken to secure
so clear a chronological arrangement of the facts, and while of special interest to
Military men, the history will also be found a storehouse of information for the
more general reader. . . . Captain Baikes, as we have said, has shown indefatigable
industry and sound discretion, as well as marked ability, in the compilation of
these two massive volumes, the attractions of which are increased by the intro-
duction of a large number of portraits and some valuable old maps and plans."
The Scotsman. — " Such a treasury has been erected by Captain Baikes in this
history of the Honourable Artillery Company. . . . Not the least interesting
feature of the book is the large number of illustrations it contains — plans of the
ground at different periods, photographic views of the armoury and other buildings,
and portraits — most of them beaut^uUy executed. ... Is a monument to the
industry of its author, and is in every way worthy of the important subject of
which it treats."
The Globe. — " Those who read the author's previous book will be prepared to
hear that the present one is a monument of painstaking industry. ... It is the
author's fashion — and a right good one too — to do his work thoroughly while he
is about it; and the present volume certainly bears marks of thoroughness in
every page. . . . The illustrations, which have been produced by photography,
generally from old wood-cuts and engravings, are admirable in every way."
Pail Mall Gazette. — '' Captain Baikes has evidently compiled this history
with great care, and he states all his sources of information. The old plans,
portraits and documents are mostly very well reproduced, and Antiquarians and
Volunteers, and especially present and past members of the H. A. C, will be glad
to see this history of the famous old Company."
The Obseryeb. — " It promises to be as complete a regimental history as we
oan remember to have seen. It bas nndonbtedly been a labonr of love to the
anthor, who has before now displayed great aptitude as a regimental historian ;
but we confess we were surprised at the amount of information he has been able
to get together for the present work. The illustrations are very numerous and
good."
Saturday Bbview. — << Captain Baikes has condensed the matter of fourteen
thousand pages of minutes. He has examined many hundreds of manuscript
volumes in which are recorded the proceedings of the Court of Aldermen, Common
Council; and Lieutenancy. He has spared no labour, and the publishers have
spared no illustrations. The result is a history of which the second and last
volume has now appeared, and of which the London Artillerymen may well be
proud."
The Academy. — " This book deserves a fuller notice than we can spare for it.
. . . Both in his methods of investigation and in the arrangements of his results,
our author deserves high praise. He unites the enthusiasm of a military officer to
the industry of a professional historian. ... To some extent he will reap his own
reward, in the performance of such conscientious work, which may well serve as a
model to all regimental chroniclers."
Notes and Queries. — "Captain Baikes' volumes are complete with nearly one
hundred illustrations, some of them of considerable topographical interest. . . .
The Honourable Artillery Company may be congratulated on having found so
capable a chronicler."
The BELiquARY. — " We can honestly say that out of all the military histories
that have come before us, none has excelled — nay, even equalled this in exhaustive-
nesB, reliableness, and masterly treatment, and assuredly none in interest and value.
... It may well be taken as a model for others to copy from.*'
The Antiquary. ~" In two large octavo volumes Captain Baikes has amassed
together a vast amount of information concerning the above famous corps. . . .
Within the brief space at our command, it will be impossible to give even a bare
summary of the information which Captain Baikes has brought together con.
oeming the annals of the Artillery Company."
Vanity Fair. — " This beantiful volume is the fruit of much labour and research."
The World. — " Captain G. A. Baikes' first instalment of his History of the
Honourable Artillery Company is very well put together, is full of interesting
information about the London Trained Bands, and is not, we should imagine, with-
out some hints likely to be practically useful to the volunteers of our own day.
In the second volume Captain Baikes brings the record to the- present day in five
hundred pages, which contains a vast amount of material. . . . The complete
work being a fitting tribnte to the importance of the great traditionary civic
regiment."
The Whitehall Beyiew. — " Even those Badicals who may object to the con-
tinued existence of a Military body which flourishes upon its own property and
exists by the sole authority of the Crown, will admit that the History of the
Honourable Artillery Company is in a very particular sense the history of the last
two centuries of London life, and that Captain Baikes has done a real historical
service by producing the remarkably handsome and admirably illustrated work
which Messrs. Bentley have just completed."
The Pictorial World. — ** In taking leave of this singularly interesting and
instructive work, which is indeed a monument of labour, we are fain to express
onr admiration of the way in which Captain Baikes has carried out his arduous
undertaking."
The Field. — " We have here two handBome volumes, elaborately illastrated,
giving in the fullest detail the history of a Corps which claims to be ' the most
ancient Military body in the British Empire, if not in the world.' . . • Bat upon
examination of the volomes, it is probable that the smile with which they might
well be regarded in the first instance may give place to a good deal of respect, *both
for the work which has been taken in hand, and the manner in which it has been
done."
Sunday Times. — "A real monument of human industry and capacity for
arrangement, the completed work does the highest credit to its author and should
find a place in every public library and on the shelves of all who are interested in
the subject on which it supplies direct or collateral information."
The Court Oikculae.— " Every one who takes any interest in the Honourable
Artillery Company must be grateful to Captain Baikes for the labour and industrious
research with which he has compiled this history. We could almost regret, indeed,
that an historian who displays so exceptional an ability and aptitude for the work
he takes in hand, had not devoted himself to a task of more general utility ; but
the public loss is the special gain of the Artillery Company."
The Cm Press. — ** The two volumes promise to be as complete a history of
this famous Company as could be possibly be produced. . . . A work, involving
enormous labour."
The Citizen. — " The first volume of Captain Raikes' History of the Honourable
Artillery Company will, it may be hoped, soon be followed by the second. . . .
The maps, plans, portraits, and other illustrations which adorn this large and
handsome volume, are of themselves exceedingly valuable ; but they are no more
than necessary adornments of a work which is the result of such assiduous research."
Oxford Unitersity Hbrald. — "It is almost impossible to speak in terms of
too high praise regarding the industry and accuracy represented in the work which
Captain Raikes has just brought to a conclusion. . . . All who are connected with
the Company may refer to it for information on the minutest details, and it will also
be of permanent value to the historian and antiquarian."
The Guardian. — ** These two goodly volumes not merely contain an interesting
history of the oldest volunteer corps in England — perhaps in Europe — and the
oldest of all corps, regular and auxiliary, which form part of the military forces of
the Kingdom, but are also a mine of curious antiquarian information of the most
diverse kind."
The Torkshire Post. — " A mere glance at the summary of authorities con.
salted in the compilation of this book affords sufficient proof that the author has
spared no pains to accomplish the purpose aimed at. . . . It is, however, doing
only an act of simple justice to Captain Baikes, to express our hearty approval
both of the matter and the style of the present portion of the important task he
has undertaken."
The Leeds Mercury. — ''The most exacting of military critics cannot fail to
be satisfied with the style in which Captain Baikes has presented the result of his
extensive researches, whilst the genercd public will none the less find much inte-
resting information in this bulky but handsome volume."
The Yorkshire Gazette.—" The work already accomplished by Captain
Baikes is a monument of his perseverance and an emblem of his industry. The
volume is brought out in the best style of typography, and with its portly propor-
tions and elegant binding forms a most attractive book."
The Irish Times. — '* The most interesting and valuable military work which
the present season has produced is, undoubtedly. Captain Baikes' History of the
Honourable Artillery Company of London. . . . The work is splendidly got up,
and is a very marvel of research."
Thb Boston Post (U.S.). — ** The first volume of the above work — in style and
workmanship a thoronghly English book, and worthy of the entertaining subject
to which it is devoted. . . . The work is very thoroughly done in every particular."
Thb Boston Journal (U.S.).— '^ Its publication has been looked forward to
with great interest in America . . . from the fact that the author includes within
the scope of his work the Ancient and Honourable Artillery Company of Boston.
Captain Baikes' history goes very fully, and with detail, into the annals of both
organizations, and must be read with great interest among military men."
HisToaiCAL AND GENEALOGICAL Bbgistee, Boston (U.S.).— "The volume
shows much research, and gives much insight into the history of military organiza-
tions in England.''
Naval and Military Gazette. — " In this volume we have a most minute and
painstaking history of the most ancient military body in the British Empire. The
labour in compiling it must have been immense, for the authorities consulted are
almost innumerable ; but the author is to be congratulated on the result"
Army and Navy Gazette. — *' Some very curious facts relative to this ancient
corps may be learnt from a perusal of Captain Baikes' comprehensive volume. . . .
Although, from its nature, the work may not be as generally appreciated as it
deserves, there is an abundance of matter collected together, which cannot fail to
interest even the casual reader."
The Broad Arrow. — " In this work we have the history of the most ancient
military body or corps in the British Empire, if not in the world. . . . Captain
Baikes may be congratulated on having produced a work which will not only be
read with profit by the historical student, but with pleasure by all those who have
ever been connected with this famous corps.'*
The Volunteer Service Gazette. — "Those who have read the interesting
account of the Third West York Militia, published a year or two ago by the same
author, will be prepared to find that Captain Baikes bas done his work thoroughly.
Indeed, we have seldom met with a more complete or conscientious historical
monograph than that contained in the volume before us. . . . It only remains to
say that the book is made as complete as we believe it is possible for a book to be.
... So long as a copy of it exists, no one else will ever be the historian of the
H. A.C. He can at best only give his readers a continuation of * Eukes.' "
The Wellington Gazette. — " We have had occasion, in reviewing a former
work of the Author, Captain Baikes, to speak of the zealous research with which
he pursues his object. . . . The preface of this admirable book is in itself an
interesting history of the distinguished Begiment of which it treats, while in the
body of the work is a mass of most readable matter, which renders it not only a
history of the Honourable Artillery Company, but also of England during the
last 300 years."
The Army and Navy Magazine.—" These Becords abound with matter inte-
resting not only to the soldier, but to the general student of history."
Journal of the Boyal United Service Institution.-- "This volume is full
of interest, and is plentifully furnished with excellent maps and illustrations."
Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Arch^ological Society.
— " The whole work is replete with curious and valuable information not elsewhere
to be found. . . . The vast mass of material which the author's diligence has
accumulated from every available source is methodically arranged in a clear chrono-
logical order, and the work, in all its details, reflects the highest credit, both
upon the author and the publishers."

©pinions of tbe preea.
Journal of the Royal United Service Institution. — ''Captain Raikes
deserves the gratitude of all oonneoted with the Third West York for the enormons
amount of labour and time which he must have expended in compiling the records
of the regiment."
Bulletin de la Reunion des Officiebs, Paris. — " Captain Raikes has brought
out in London an extremely interesting history of the regiment to which he
belongs.'*
Revue Belge Militaires. — " One does not know what most to admire in this
beautiful publication, tbe laborious work which it has entailed on the author, or
the pains which the publishers have taken to make it a veritable typographical
monument.*'
Militaie-Litebatub-Zeitunq, Berlin. — ** The historical records now before us
contain not only the history of tiie First Regiment of Militia (Third West York),
but also a very considerable contribution to the general history of the Militia, and
on this account they acquire a special interest for Continental readers, and amply
justify a thorough discussion of their very valuable contents."
Obgan der Militar Wissenschaftlichen Yebeine, Yienna. — *'This regi-
mental history is got up in that costly style which in England is usual in bringing
out books of this comprehensive character. The ' Records,* as the author modestly
calls his work, are enriched with beautiful illustrations."
The Army and Navy Gazette. — "That Captain Raikes should have been
able to mass together such an amount of information is certainly astonishing, and,
though little opportunity offered for the author to render his volume one of great
literary merit, he has handled his subject and strung together his ' dry facts ' in a
manner which commends his history to the notice of military readers. ... It is
by far the best book of its class we ever remember to have seen.*'
The Broad A brow. — " The HiBtorioal Beoords of the First Begiment of Militia
are very readable and interesting, not only to Torkshiremen and Militiamen, bat
to the Service as a whole, and to the general reader. . . . The compilation has
eridently been a work of great labour, and that labour has been a labour of love."
Naval and Military Gazbttb. — " These records give evidence of an immense
amount of labour and research, and may be regarded, we think, as exhaustive and
complete. . . . The appendices alone are a monument of careful labour in the
collection of valuable and interesting statistics bearing on the Militia Service.''
Th?s UNirKD Sbbticb Gazette. — *'. . . This service Captain Eaikes has
rendered by the preparation of his valuable records, which must have cost him an
amount of care and labour which only the true zeal and spirit of the soldier could
have enabled him to bear."
The Yolunteer Beyiew, Ottawa, Canada. — *' We cannot compliment Captain
Baikes too much on the very valuable records he has produced."
The Athen^uh.— " Captain Baikes has done well in publishing the records of
his regiment, for, as he observes in the Preface, they have * a beneficial effect in
maintaining that esprit de corps without which a regiment loses half its value.'
... In the Appendix, all particulars relating to statutes affecting the volunteering
of men from the Militia to the regular Army are given, and these statutes are well
worth studying at the present time. Indeed, the whole book is worth reading,
for it has been most carefully compiled, and may, we believe, be looked upon as
thoroughly accurate."
The Spectator.—'' The positive interest of the book is chiefly of a local
character, though the valuable appendices which Captain Baikes has constructed
with such infinite pains have something more.*'
The Globe. — " Captain Baikes has compiled a history which cannot fail to be
of great interest, not only to the present members of the regiment, but to York-
shiremen in general. . . . The book thus forms a sort of supplement to the county
history, as well as a trustworthy record of the services performed in one of the
oldest Militia corps in England."
Public Opinion. — " With great care and research our author has dived into
such records as are in existence, and, meagre though the materials be, a valuable
and interesting historical narrative has resulted from his labours."
The York Herald. — " By means of this interesting and carefully-compiled
volume, all persons who care to understand what the Militia has been, as a whole,
will be enabled to study its beginning and its development, and the services it has
rendered in times past. . . . He has spared no research and industry, and the
result is a bulky volume of great interest and permanent value."
The Yorkshire Post. — " Captain Baikes is very much to be complimented in
regard to the diligence and labour bestowed in gathering together, from such
scattered resources as were at his command, so much interesting information as is
here presented of the history of the Third West York Light Infantry."
The Yorkshire Gazette. — " We have given a very brief glance of this ex-
cellent work by Captain Baikes. To Yorkshiremen it will be of great value,
presenting throughout its pages an immense source of information, wrought to-
gether in a masterly manner, and converting materials, which to a civilian's mind
would be very dry and unreadable, into a pleasant and instructive book."
The Leeds Mercury. — " We have little doubt this volume will be read with
much eagerness by all who are interested in the ' Old Constitutional Force,' and
that it will also serve the author's purpose in maintaining that esprit de corpSf
without which a regiment loses half its value.' "
The Court Journal. ~" He has aapplied its history with a fnlness of detail
which leaves nothing to be desired."
The Yorkshire Telegraph. — "This is a valnable contribntion to militar/
literature. ... As complete a record as could well be imagined ; and notwith.
standing that Captain Baikes hints in his preface that the records of the regiment
have been kept better than is generally the case, yet his labour in putting them
into a readable form, as he has done, must have been one of great magnitude."
The Doncaster Chronicle. — "Nobody can look at the book without being
struck by the enormous labour and the studious pains bestowed upon its pro-
duction."
The Doncaster Gazette. — ^* The result of his labour leaves nothing to be
desired, and the author is to be complimented on the highly praiseworthy manner
in which he has given a full and complete review of the past."
The Eastern Morning News. — " With the changes and movements thus in-
dicated, the author has found no difficulty in making his history of the regiment
very interesting, and at the same time contributed a valuable addition to the
history of the country during the last century."
The Times ov India. — " An immense mass of information is here presented to
us, not only about the 3rd West York, but also about the Militia generally."
